Mojave Unified School District

To increase revenue, the Mojave Unified School District (USD) is aiming to maximize the use of its assets. As part of this effort, the District is establishing a "7-11 Committee."

Purpose of the 7-11 Committee

The Committee's objective is to assess and evaluate the real estate holdings of Mojave USD, identifying properties deemed "excess" or "surplus" as they are not needed for educational purposes. The Committee will then compile a report for the Board of Trustees outlining recommendations for the utilization or disposition of such properties, which may include sale or leasing options. Given the significance of this responsibility, the District seeks individuals of exceptional qualifications, capability, and dedication to serve on the Committee.

Under California law (Education Code Section 17389), the Committee must have at least seven (7) members and no more than eleven (11) members and contain persons who can be representative of each of the following:

1. The ethnic, age group and socioeconomic composition of the district;
2. The business community, such as store owners, managers, or supervisors;
3. Landowners or renters, with preference to be given to representatives of neighborhood associations;
4. Teachers;
5. Administrators;
6. Parents of Students;
7. Persons with expertise in environmental impact, legal contracts, building codes, and land use planning, including, but not limited to, knowledge of the zoning and other land use restrictions of the cities or cities and counties in which surplus space and real property is located.
